dc.description.abstractThe state is largely absent in the Bombay Hotel locality in terms of planning the built environment and providing infrastructure and services. Many builders and other non-state actors then become involved in informal provision of basic services such as water; they reap huge profits from the area, sometimes using threats and coercion to collect monthly charges from residents. The rise of groups who exert control through coercion, threats and direct violence, and the fear that residents experience on a regular basis for their life, family and property, are a consequence of informal development combined with little or no responsive policing.en
